Working on the idea that married men would be the most reliable and realizing that the cost of a family might limit the number of children, | the idea was solved of a bonus in | cash for each child born to an em- ploye and a handsome present to every one when they married. This particular concern long ago recognized their responsibility to- ward their employes and the welfare | work conducted among them has grown steadily. The results have been very satisfactory in terms of dollars and cents as well as humani- ty. The firm provides insurance for everyone who has been in its employ insurance is provided without pense, the firm taking out a blanket policy equivalent to the amount of salary, but none more than $5,000. For any injury or gick- ness resulting in absence fron ployment for more than a week the employee is paid 75 per cent of his salary after the first week. This may | continue for a year. They have a well planned pension system for those who have been with them for more than twenty years, and a profit sharing society in which every six months the firm contributes a sum equal to that saved by the em- ployee. A yearly bonus to those who have been employed for more than two years, starts with 2 per cent and advances 1 per cent with each year of service. This concern is now able to com: mand the very best of service and to keep its employes for an indéfinite | length of time.

It is asserted that picnic parties. have been digging up these young pines for the purpose of trans- planting them to their home yards and that, as that is a difficult opera- tion, the pines seldom live in their new places and the public suffers. The tax payers have paid for these young pines and the growth will, in a few years, add valuable trees to the assets of the state, while the in- dividual can seldom benefit by them even after they have been stolen for the adornment of private grounds.
